“Elisabeth took incredible care of my cat while I was away! I got plenty of photos and she was even kind enough to give in to his daily demands to be brushed. It was such a relief to know he was well taken care of while I was gone for two weeks. Elisabeth was able to step in and extend her visits when my return trip was delayed for a day. Highly recommended!”

“Andrea did an amazing job taking care of our dog while we were away for a long weekend. She was very attentive and went above and beyond our expectations for walks during the day and loving on her during every visit. Our dog loved her, and she made the whole experience worry and stress free. We will absolutely be working with her again!”

About: I have take care of dogs and cats since I can remember. I’ve always had family pets that I looked after. Recently I started to pet sit professionally and have looked after pets with all manners of personalities and needs. I am currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. Monday through Wednesday in the office and Thursday through Friday remote. I am free every weekend and anytime after 5pm. Because each pet parent is unique and has their own ways to raise and care for their pets I strictly adhere to their rules and guidelines. That includes areas they have their pets walk and house rules for those that request house sitting.
“I’m so happy that I found Karen! She did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats. She sent so many photos and really made me feel comfortable leaving them in her care.”
“Ariana took such good care of our lil man, Mr. Teddy. 💞 The pictures were fantastic as we were away. And she handled giving his daily oral medicine extremely well. 10/10!”
Parkside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jennifer did a wonderful job keeping our kitties company and entertained, they did not miss us at all! She did a great job taking care of the litter and following all instructions. She was also a great communicator and kept us up to date the entire time, we will definitely reach out to her again in the future!
Heather did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away. She followed all of our instructions carefully, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. Dylan can be tricky when it comes to taking his pill, but Heather was able to give it to him without any issues, which was such a relief for us. We came home to two happy cats and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!
Daniela was reliable, communicative, and kind. She provided our 3 cats with consistency and entertainment while we were away! and got even our most skittish cat to feel comfortable and look forward to her visits. Thank you so much - would book again without hesitation!
Celeste was communicative, reliable, and flexible when my plane was delayed and I got home later than expected. Two of my dogs are seniors and they can be a little extra work, which Celeste was very kind about. She sent pictures and even mopped the kitchen floor which I was not expecting. Most importantly, my dogs were happy and safe when I camd home. Thank you Celeste!
